A package-manager for nushell.
Deprecation notice
What does deprecated mean here?
I will for the forseeable future keep this compatible with new nu versions, but
- i wont add new features / packages.
- when a alternative has properly matured i will archive this.
- im no longer using it myself and therefore might not notice new bugs.
What now?
Suggestion:
- New users: use a active alternative.
- Old users: if packer does everything you need keep using it until it breaks or something else matures.
- Package devs: use the nupm format.

Installation
Notice: It works on GNU/Linux and Windows, but macos and bsd are probably similar enough to work as well.
Install command:
nu -c (http get https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jan9103/packer.nu/master/install.nu)
You have to reopen nu afterwards.
Basic Usage
Selecting and Configuring packages
| :information_source: A full documentation of the usage can be found in the wiki (GitHub, CodeBerg). |
|---|
~/.config/nushell/packages.nuon contains your package list and packer-configuration.
A example config:
{
packages: [
# the config should specify packer.nu itself in order to allow automatic updates.
{source: 'jan9103/packer.nu'} # -> https://github.com/jan9103/packer.nu
# any git-repository URI, which is not password protected should be supported
{source: 'https://codeberg.org/packer.nu/bookmarks.git'}
# you can also use local directories
# this symlinks the directory and wont update it with `packer update`.
{source: '~/code/my_packer_nu_plugin'}
]
}
To install new packages run packer install.
To update installed packages run packer update.
